Description:

MailChimp Lock is an extension for Download Monitor that requires visitors to be subscribed to your MailChimp list before they can access a download. You can lock the downloads of your choice with one click, so only existing MailChimp subscribers can get your files. The extension is built to help grow your email list and is fully GDPR compliant. It works together with the MailChimp for WordPress plugin, which must be installed for the extension to function.

The extension supports double opt-in. You can set your MailChimp list to double opt-in and include the download URL in your final welcome email. By appending ?email=*|EMAIL|* to the download URL, MailChimp can generate unique download URLs for each subscriber. The extension uses the mc4wp_form shortcode from MailChimp for WordPress, which displays a subscribe form that grants access to the download after successful completion. Styling works out of the box, and you can control the content with the built-in WordPress content editor.

This extension suits anyone with a WordPress website who wants to generate more leads, sell digital products, or protect digital files against unauthorized downloads. It requires a self-hosted WordPress.org installation or a website hosted on WordPress.com's Business Plan. It does not work with other platforms such as Shopify, Wix, Drupal, Joomla, or Squarespace.

The vendor’s own page for Download Monitor – MailChimp Lock has the full details.

Licenses

All WordPress derivative work is GPL-licensed. Most items are pre-activated and ready to use. Some require an activation key — we provide it with your purchase, and the Dashboard lets you apply it in seconds.

✅ Money-Back Guarantee

Every item is tested and ships with full features. If something doesn't work and we can't fix it, you get a full refund. We believe premium tools should be accessible — that's why we offer a low-cost subscription so freelancers, small businesses, and agencies can grow without a large upfront investment.
